Cackle Hatchery Gold Laced Polish - Not Sexed

Golden Laced Polish are stunning, docile ornamental birds known for their large, bouffant crests, V-shaped combs, and vibrant gold feathers with black lacing.

They lay small-to-medium white eggs and require dry, sheltered, or, in some cases, bearded care to protect their crests.
